The dengue virus attaches to the surface of a host cell ... deep inside the cell, the virus fuses with the endosomal membrane and is released into the cytoplasm. The virus particle comes apart ...

Like other viruses, the dengue virus is a microscopic structure that can only replicate inside a host ... cell's membrane folds around the virus and forms a pouch that seals around the virus particle.

Researchers at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa have made an exciting discovery: a virus found in the ocean called FloV-SA2 carries the genetic instructions for making part of a ribosome—a crucial ...

The new study, published in ACS Nano, addresses specific challenges in virion design using approaches that are not observed in virus biology. The approach uses naturally occurring amino acids ...

One potential application for the photonic time crystals is in nanosensing. "Imagine we want to detect the presence of a ...
